What about cleaning off seeds with h2o2 before germ?

I personally wouldn’t. Seedlings / seeds don’t need anything but water.
Sometimes I think less is more

This is what I did to mine. Never had issues with damping off but I usually transplant these into a different dwc set up so it makes it easier with 4" net pots. I have sprouted 4 plants so far like this I also put a plastic dome over the cup to keep in moisture. I have my unit listed for sale and the main reason is because I cannot see any info on EC,PH ect. Doesnt sound like they will ever change this. Also about using 1.5 bottles per grow I have had to send in tickets asking them to back down my nutrients because of burn.

Has no one ever tried trimming a coco pod to fit inside one of those nets? Have I asked that before?

There’s a lot of info here. It’s basically when your seed or roots are dying due to lack of oxygen (air), especially when dealing with DWC growing.
Here’s some info:

The truth needs to come out about this product. It sucks. I’ve had the Grobo unit for about 2.5 years and haven’t had a clean run yet. The problem I’m having at the moment is that the lights turn off all the time. Let me repeat. this is the problem I’m having now. there been a lot of other problems in the past. I’m about to throw this product out the window. If I could give anyone advice if they are thinking about spending $2500 of there hard earned money one this product is DONT!!! It sucks.

Sorry your having problems
Pete if there is anything we can do let us know.
I’m not sure what the lighting problem is I would get in touch with support on that one.

trust me I have. and frankly I’m tired of dealing with them. they tell me to move my unit in a colder room. so frustrating. anyway I’m not looking for answers at this point I want the truth to come out about this product. it sucks.
Trust me I have. And frankly I’m tired of dealing with them
This is a real bummer for sure. I can’t imagine 2.5 years and still no harvests yet? Not one?
I am also very surprised - as a new grower, only on my first grow and having experienced a handful of problems myself so far, I found Support to be very attentive and a good resource in getting my grow dialed in. It’s still a learning game for me so I rely on their expertise.
I also find that the majority of people in the AllGrowers forum are a good resource too and have nothing but good intentions.
It’s really unfortunate that this was not your experience.

I have gotten product. I’m just saying the runs are anything from smooth. The machine is faulty. And it seems like it’s bc it’s them controlling everything from their end.
What have they said regarding a possible Full Refund
After 2+ years I wouldn’t refund.

Hey @Pete,
I’ve been chatting with the support team about your case today. Your unit is experiencing an overheat condition and shutting down for safety. We will not remove this safety feature as you requested.
The unit will need to be kept in a controlled environment to work properly, and 26 degrees Celsius is right on the border of being too hot. This is not the grow chamber we are looking at, it’s the temperature of your LED light that we are concerned with.
I understand your frustration, but I’ve removed your other post expressing said frustration, as it contained inappropriate language. Feel free to remove that and you can post it again.
I know our hardware team is reviewing the video you sent to see if your cross flow fan has slowed down, needs cleaning or has failed after 2.5 years, but we have to take that temp down in the room you have the unit in to start our troubleshooting. You’ve indicated that you are unwilling to do this, so our support is limited.
Cheers,
Stephen
